Review and classification of electric load forecasting (LF) techniques based on artificial neuralnetworks (ANN) is presented. A basic ANNs architectures used in LF reviewed. A wide range of ANNoriented applications for forecasting are given in the literature. These are classified into five groups:(1) ANNs in short-term LF, (2) ANNs in mid-term LF, (3) ANNs in long-term LF, (4) Hybrid ANNs inLF,...

Author profiling is a text classification technique, which is used to predict the profiles of unknown text by analyzing their writing styles. Author profiles are the characteristics of the authors like gender, age, nativity language, country and educational background. The existing approaches for Author Profiling suffered from problems like high dimensionality of features and fail to capture th...

I n January, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) posted additional information about an imaging-focused funding opportunity announcement (FOA) component of the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) Initiative. BRAIN is a collaborative effort announced in April 2013 by President Obama, with a goal of “revolutionizing our understanding of the human brain.” NIH ...

The antigenic profile of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) cells was analyzed by immunoperoxidase staining of 27 surgically removed BCC lesions with antiganglioside, antiadhesion molecule, and antihistocompatibility locus antigen (HLA) monoclonal antibodies (MoAb). The large majority of BCC lesions were stained by antiganglioside MoAb; among the latter the anti-GD3 ganglioside MoAb R24 displayed the b...

henoch-schönlein purpura nephritis and iga nephropathy are currently considered to be different clinical presentations of the same disease. there is need for a reliable proven, morphologic classification that can help clinicians more accurately formulate treatment strategies for patients with henoch-schönlein purpura nephritis. considering that henoch-schönlein purpura nephritis and iga nephrop...
